"Heaven" in Mexico.

In the state of Vera Cruz, 100 miles
from the city of that name, there is a
section of country called "Heaven," be-
cause of its favorable climatic conditions.
It's air, water and general environments
are conducive to long life. Jesus Waldo
nado recently died there at the age of 154.
He was carried to the grave by his three
sons, respectively 140, ia and ITO years
old TO have children married at IL and
IA years of age is d common thing. The

On the Afghanistan Frontier.
The modus operandi of manipulating
the kalian likewise comes in for slight
modification here The ordinary Persian
method before handing the water pipe to
another, is to lift off the top while taking
the last pull and thus empty the water
chamber of smoke The Tabbasites ac-
complish the same end by raising the top
and blowing down the stem. This mighty
difference in the manner of clearing the
water chamber of hubble-bubble will
no doubt impress the minds of intellectual
Occidentals as a remarkably important
and valuable piece of information. Not
less interesting and remarkable will like
wise seem the fact that the flour frescoed
proprietors of these queer little Tabbas
grist mills are nothing less than the bound
airy mark between that portion of the
water pipe smoking world which blows
the remaining smoke out and that portion
which inhales it. The Afghan, the Indian
and the Chinaman adopt the former me-
thod; the Turk, the Persian and the Arab

Superiority of American Husbands.

1t is fact, which had already struck
me, and which had heard frequently re-
marked upon, that American wives, if
they are not allowed so much latitude in
Irritation as English ones, receive much
more Difference and greater share of les
petits soins from their husbands. An
American husband himself pays his wife
those little attentions which in English
society usually devolve upon another
man if the lady happens to be pretty and
agreeable, and which she does without if
she is neither. 1t is possible that the SUI
periority of the American system may be
due to the ease with which divorce can be
obtained in some states, and which, to
use homely expression, put pair ''more
upon their p's and q's'' with each other.
1t may arise from a higher development
of the sentiment of chivalry in the breast
of the American man. At any rate, he
shows to advantage in his domestic as
well as in his business elations.--Temple

1 asked what kind of a man Sergt.
Bates was, who starts the show by riding
round the immense ring with the Ameri-
can flag in his hands, and he rides as we'll
as any Indian. 'Why," said Jack
Burke, "Bates is a real philanthropist,
for that man is going on all day with those
Indians, taking them to the tower, to
Westminster Abbey or some place or
other. We have to keep their minds oc-
cupied or the monotony wears upon them.
Bates loves nothing better than to go
around with these Indians morning and
night. He has carried the American flag
through all the American states and
through all the British islands. When
we took him up the old fellow could hard
ly make living. He is of considerable
use to us.-"Gath' in Cincinnati En-.

two friends, and they had been at play in
the hsy-lofs. 1t was warm and sunny; and
through the loft window they could plain
ly hear the good minister preaching, for
their house was next door to the church.
"Dan," said Willie, stretching himself
out on the nice, soft hay, cit is better
here than at church; for you can hear ev-
cry word, and don't get prickles down
your back, as you do when you have to
sit up straight" In some way while Will
lie was listening and watching the dusty
notes riding on the sunbeams, he fell
asleep. Dan kissed him on the nose sew
eral times; but, when Willie went asleep,
he went to stay and did not mind trihes.
So Dan gave it up at last. He sat down
with the funniest look OF care on his wise,
black face, with one ear ready for outside
noises. Now, the minister had for his
subject, this Sunday morning, "Daniel."
Alas! this was the name he always gave
Dan when he was teaching him to sit up
and beg, and other tricks. While the
dog was in the hay-loft thinking, the
name Daniel fell into his ready ear. Dan
at once jumped down, and ran into the
church through the vestry door. He stood
on his hind legs, with his fore paws meekly
dropping, close beside the minister who
did not see him. But the congregation
did. When the minister shouted "Dan-

Yes, sir" as plainly as Dan could an

around and saw the funny little picture,

and said; "Plsase 'scuse Dan, papa.

Then he walked out again, with Dan

A TRUE HORSE STORY.

On Madison street one day paused to
pat the nose of beautiful horse which
stood by the curb, and commiserate his
misfortune, for this beautiful animal,
though sleek OF coat and shapely in body
and limb, was apparently suffering most
excruciating torture. His head had been
checked mhumanely high, and the cruel
bit, drawing tightly in his mouth, disfig-
ured an animal face of unusual charm
and intelligence. was just fancying
that the horse had begun to understand
and appreciate my words of sympathy,
when the lady who sat in the carriage
holding the reins fumbled in her pocket,
produced lump of white sugar and ask
ed me to give it to the horse.
"He is very fond of sugar" she explain
ed, "and have quite won his heart by
feeding it to him. l always carry sugar
in my pocket while out driving, and give
him lump at every opportunity. new
or knew horse to be 80 fond of sugar.
Will you please give him another lump"
Certainly" 1 replied, 81 see that you
are quite as fond of the horse as he of
sweets"
"Yes, I think everything of him."
"Then why do you torture him2"
"Forture my Prince?"
'Yes, that is just Whist you are doing.
Do you know that the poor animal suf-
fers agony because his head is checked
SO unnsturally high? His neck is drawn
out straight, producing a most ungrace-
full angle, he holds his head awkwardly,
the bit is hurting his mouth, and that
graceful curvature of neck and carriage
of head which are in his nature are now
entirely lost Why do You check him so
high?"
She didn't know. See was not aware
that high checking was a source of pain
to horses. nor that it destroyed their nat
ural beauty. She was amazed at the dis
eovery.

WHAT BOYS SHOULD BE
TAUGHT,

Some weeks since I read to my pupils
of the seventh grade, "Wh8t every Girl
Ought to Learn" see page 157, Institute
for January. AS the boys were very
much delighted with the "hits" on the
girls, told the latter that the next morn
ing they could each bring to school, writ
ten out, five things which the boys should
be taught. Thinking you may be inter-
ested in the result send it, arranged by
myself.
To be obedient.
To have patience.
To be temperate in all things.
To read books worth reading.
Never to chew, smoke, drink, or use
profane language
To keep themselves neat and clean.
To shun evil company and rough ways.
To take off their hats when they enter
the house.
To be useful in the house as well as
out Of it.
Always to be employed in some useful
way.
To be polite at all times and have a
kind word for everybody.
To keep early hours and always be
punctual and industrious.
To get their lessons and obey the rules
of school,
To avoid the contracting of loose hab-
its, and strive to be manly always.
To be kind and courteous to each other
in the schoolroom and on the street.
To mind their own business, and leave
the girls entirely alone till their education
is finished.
To remember that money does moi
make the man, but that man should make
money.
To be orderly and quiet about the
house, especially if their mother or any
one else is an invalid.
To be impressed with the truth that
time is given to be improved, not vast &c
and that perfect manhood cannot follow
youth spent in idleness, or in sowing Of
wild oats.-Supt. E. L. CoaUdricE, IN

Martyrs to Headache

Seek relief in vain, until they begin to
use Ayers Sarsaparilla. Then they re-
greet the years of suffering they might
have escaped had they tried this remedy
earlier. The trouble was constitutional
not local; and, until Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla did its effective work as an
Alternative and Blood Purifier, they were
compelled to suffer.

subject to severe headaches, the result

A few days ago comment was
made in these columns on the fact
that Wichita, Kansas, judge had
sentenced one j. Il. Stewart, a
drug clerk, to seventeen years i'm
prisonment and the payment OF
$4,000 fine for violations of the
prohibitory law. Some two hum
dred and odd indictments had been
found against the young man and
he pleaded guilty to each. The
Judge showed neither reason nor
mercy in the case, but being rab-
id Prohlbitionist imposed the max
imum penalty. The governor has
just committed the sentence to six
months in Jail and fine of 5000,
which all reasonable persons will
admit is u just punishment.
